WE 301 in new paint (1)
Title:  WE 301 in new paint (1)
Description:  Still looking shiny yet. This was in Rio Grande paint until spring 2011 when it was in an accident and the damage was deemed bad enough to warrant a full repaint. This engine was built as PC 3153 GP40 in September 1968. Later became Conrail 3153, DRGW 3153, and DRGW 3142. Seen here at the interchange with CSX in Connellsville, awaiting a new crew and not running.
